Michael DeLuca mausoleum
Above door:
MICHAEL DE LUCA
On riser of top step:
1930
There is space for 6 internments, 3 on the right and 3 on the left, all occupied. On the back wall, there is a lovely stained glass window depicting lilies and the cross. There is a small marble altar displaying family photos, presumably of the deceased, and religious statues. There are also flower tributes. The mausoleum is obviously lovingly tended.
